Because of the gravity of the news, which will probably mean a flood of new details and developments, and the chances that this will drastically affect Missouri state politics, I have made this a “sticky” post.

Add this to the fact that he lives in Creve Coeur while his wife lives in the CWE, (and remember she was jacked close to where she lives back during her husband’s transition period), and I’m just waiting for all the gossip about the unconventionality of their marriage to break the blood-brain barrier.

What also helped fuel this gossip was that there was a lot of serious talk that, between the times of Greitens winning the election and being inaugurated, that Sheena Greitens would not be living in the Governor’s Mansion.

This isn’t quite that, but there’s always more time for more to come out.

We also will eventually find out how their buying in Innsbrook relates to the unconventionality of their marriage.

* The bit about the S&M nudie/blackmail isn’t going away so easily, if at all, and will be why Mike Parson should be measuring for drapes right about now.

* There’s now calls for Hawley to investigate. Especially in this #MeToo climate, he’ll fire all four barrels at Greitens, especially if he thinks he needs to in order to beat Claire in November.

* Then, there’s this. Though if one wants to think this diminishes the credibility, then why did they want whatever news outlet would run with it to time it to the State of the State? What real political damage does that cause?

* According to the ex-husband of the woman Greitens allegedly blackmailed, the FBI has interviewed both him and his ex-wife. The FBI has not yet confirmed or refuted.

* The woman now says she didn’t want this to come out at all and that the ex-husband betrayed her trust by shopping this story to the local media.

* It is my sense, reading between the lines of the news and things that people are saying, that Republican members of the General Assembly generally lean on the side of believing the blackmail accusation.

* It’s getting deeper. First off, she has to be related to Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer, but I can’t remember precisely how offhand. Second, while it’s not proof that the blackmail accusation is true, I think it’s indicative of something.

* And deeper still. It all depends on what the FBI, and maybe the U.S. Attorney, and Kim Gardner, all think. I don’t think that the timing of this and now four General Assembly Republicans calling for his resignation is a coincidence.

* P-D calls for resignation. Of course they might be partisan and hypocritical, but you also see here why his political career is shot to hell. Not so long ago, he has Presidential ambitions.

* The MSM articles in the aftermath of the indictment note that Greitens has always had an alienated and standoffish relationship with General Assembly Republicans, compared to the soon-to-be Governor Mike Parson, who is way more of a quintessential swamp creature.

This may lead you to ask me if I think that this is something of a dog patch deep state hit. The reasons I highly doubt that the state Republican machinery is behind this are: (1) I have not heard any gossip that they helped feed the initial allegations to Channel 4, (2) Greitens ideologically lined up with the General Assembly Republicans very well.

The only real rub is that Greitens did what he could during his first year and change as Governor unilaterally to drain the swamp, which had the net effect of making life a lot more boring for the Jefferson City political class. I can attest to the fact that Jeff City really isn’t a hot or hopping town, and, without lobbyists around to pay for some parties and good times, at least not to the extent that they were before Eric Greitens rode into town, life for the political class in that town while they’re there has suddenly become borderline suicidally boring.

That would point to motive on their part, motive in engineering such a hit. But I’m not grokking a paper trail or smoking guns.

This is a “sticky” post.

Since I’ve written many posts since my return to functional coherence in mid-November, any posts about my condition I wrote here upon my return, and also subsequent ones, are buried in the avalanche. So, I’m going to use the opportunity of this sticky post to link to them directly.

Between my return to functional coherence, and the restoration of most of my short term memory in mid-January, for that about two month time period, I was not inherently able to remember most people who I either knew or knew of for about five years or less.

Me Time — Six months after my last unconsciousness event, I’ve been cleared for that.

One more thing: If the post starts with a geographical moniker of some sort, it’s me doing the writing. If it starts with “Guest post by Puggg,” it’s Norm, the best friend anyone could ever have, doing the writing.

St. Louis City has 28 members of the Board of Aldermen, (being reduced to 14 starting the first local elections after the release of the 2020 Census data), and if this happens to even one of them, then it goes to show you that the city’s got itself some problems.

And also, don’t even these damned dumb dindus know by now that sail foams can be tracked?

Like I wrote here at the end of last month, if I made it to the middle of this month without experiencing any unconsciousness events, then I will have reached six months since the last time I had any such event without having another. That’s a medically significant milestone, the most practical consequence for me and everyone surrounding me is that I no longer need to have anyone in my presence at all times, meaning I can be left alone for long stretches. Even though I can’t truly live alone, and who knows if I’ll ever really be able to do that.

My rehab doctors officially cleared me in that stead today.

My present for reaching this milestone was being brought back to the secret hideout and being left alone for awhile, which I still am now, while everyone else who lives here makes themselves scarce to run errands and take care of business and have fun and this that and the third.

This is the first real extended normal waking hours total peace and quiet and solace I’ve had since my mid-November return to functional coherence.

You might remember this particular Fambly Dolla location. It’s directly across the street from the Ferguson Market, where, as you know, a certain gentle giant purloined his ultimate cigarillo a little more than three and a half years ago.

“Police were able to locate the victim at an apartment complex.” That wasn’t as easy as it sounds, because, as you might also remember, the Fergaza Strip is full of apartment farms, the now internationally infamous Canfield Green being just one of them. Also, why did the cops have to try to find him? Why didn’t the victim call for help? As you can read here, he left the scene and that was that for that. Probably because the victim has outstanding warrants.

I’m just brain damaged enough to think that this is both an advance signal and a make good in advance on the part of the criminal justice system authorities in Charlottesville that they know that James Fields will never be convicted of anything because they have no case against him because they know it was self-defense. Letting DeAndre Harris off the hook softens what they know is going to be a big “blow.”

What this doesn’t tell you is that the only reason this perfidy bubbled up to the surface is that the girl, who was 11 years old at the time, wound up delivering a baby boy nine months later. This does tell you that he and the girl are related, but not precisely how. Probably to protect the girl’s identity, though I’m guessing that they are closely enough related such that the “relationship” would have been a crime even if she was of age.

This also happened in the 100 block of Downing Street in O’Fallon. Which is a trailer park.

Incest, statutory rape, trailer park.

I better not ever hear another problacktard preening on about Deliverance, ever again.
